Does 97200 and/or 93150 bracelet fit 116520?

Hi All

I’m new to the forum, so this is my first post; and from reading some of the other threads I know this is the best place to receive accurate information.

I recently inherited a 2005 116520. I plan to use it as my daily wearer but will replace the PCL bracelet — which I will obviously keep — with a brushed alternative. It simply suits my life better, plus from a personal perspective I also think it looks better. So ….

… is it possible to fit either a 97200 or 93150 to the 116520 (’05)? And if they can, can I simply use it with the end links from my PCL bracelet.

Look forward to your helpful advice.

The bracelets will fit, but you can't use your 78490 end links, they don't come off. You can use the Daytona clasp on other Oyster bracelets.

Thanks Larry. Do you know what end links I would need to fit the 93130 bracelet to the Daytona 116520?

Why not just have your bracelet brushed?

I'm certainly not ruling that out.

I've read a number of threads on the forum covering that very topic. I've just got to find the best reputable guy in the UK to do the work. All recommendations gratefully received.
